Hello, I'm new to the hobby. I've had my tank going since November 10. I can't seem to get rid of this cloudy water. It looks white and not green. I didn't know anything about cycling when I started but I believe I have gotten past it. All of my test seem to be reading fine. Here is a pic and I just did a water change yesterday, it is usually worse than this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My guess it’s a harmless bacteria bloom which should go away on its own. It’s common for a new tank to go through a white cloudy period. Your tank is still considered new and still going through changes. I recommend not do any more water changes or adding more fish until it clears up which might take up to a month.

Perfect, thanks. I'll keep an eye on the ammonia levels and give it a month
